It depends on the ordnung of that
particular group. You will find a
smattering, living lives appropriate to
anytime from about 1500 to 2002 as far
as type of energy usage.

 You are , I believe, correct that the
idea is not to be unequally yoked with
unbelievers. The same discussion applies
to insurance, medical care, voting ,
holding public office.

 Being in the world, but not of it is a
knotty problem.
